Interview with Boby Mohan, Jt. Executive
Officer &Head - Biz Dev, Distil Information Systems)


How big is the Business Intelligence market for you?

According to Gartner, the BI is estimated to be a $14 billion market globally of which the Asia and India are expected to be $1 billion and $100 million respectively. Of this, Distil Info seeks to address the decision support needs for companies in the < $250 million segment globally with our Distil DSS vertical suites, which forms close to 60 percent of the present market size.

What are the emerging trends you see in this space?

We feel that commoditization and pre-packaging is a main driver for falling deal sizes as companies (especially the Tier II ones) come out of the complex, ‘value added’ proposition of the BI solution in favour of much simpler and more effective decision support systems. Collaborative decision support systems, which leverage the organization’s capabilities across levels is the need of the hour today. A scenario tailor made for our pre-built content rich DSS offerings.
